I gotta question about training? Sorry, to change the subject but when it says
Ex:
Kawamiri no Jutsu
The students will use their pebbles from the Henge lesson to practice the Kawarimi technique. They must successfully complete this four times.
DC: 13
Cp: -1 per Kawarimi usage
Formula: 1d20 + Kawamiri
Train: 0/4
Rewards: +1 Chakra, +1 Chakra Control
Or something like that and I'm successful so now its 1/4 correct?
Do I still get the reward or do I have to get it too 4/4 to receive the rewards? I just wanna know cause I'm so ready to start RPing with my character its driving me to insanity.

You should do it 4/4 times, then make the format correct in the village you are from. Like after training, look for like some kinda thread in your village that you tell the page number, and other stuff in a format to fill it out on that thread, then someone will tell you the experience and stuff you get, then you fix that yourself.

Hayate-senpai You can't blame a kickserve, okay. Its not the kick serves fault, its that yours isn't good enough yet. But doing a kick serve is good since its not an easy shot. I mean, you can't say that "A kick serve isn't good enough for my high school team" I mean pros use it allllllllll the time for their second serve. Its just you probally don't even reconize it, but yeah. If its good enough for pros to use it, its good enough for high school. You just need to not use it till you make it really sharp and fast. American Twist/Kick Serve owns ^.^ I just like the name personally but its a useful serve. I mean, if a pro used the same power as your normal serve and made it a kick then I bet pretty much no one on your team would be able to return, and their kicks are still very fast. If it works vs Sampras than you can't complain about the serve being useless vs a team with mostly freshman. ]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-enVQiknD2U
Yes, my team is mostly freshmen, but there are still seniors and juniors that have practicing for a nice long time. They would catch the movement after I hit the first few and would catch on.
And yes, I know the pros use it. That's a given. It's a nice second serve, but that's all it is. It's an opposite spin serve that can kill many players, until you see that little motion.
I simply traded it off because I'd rather have a serve that can hit hard and have a spin, without it being too tricky or too obvious.

Even if someone sees it coming doesn't mean they can return it, I'm sure Sampras saw it coming, but the kick was both fast and sharp. You just need to increase the power and sharpness. It won't matter if they see it, it will be to difficult to hit. Its harder to hit a ball going up sharply more so then a ball that has a slight surve on it.

Yes, it's a hard serve to return, but the problem still lies in the prediction of said serve. They will know a kick serve is coming after the motion. On top of this I don't know a single high-schooler who has the technique, power, nor the abilities of Federer to match said serve of his.
Once they know it's coming, then it's a matter of adjusting until you get used to the opponent's fluctuating curve of the shot, because no one can replicate the exact same shot twice like that. Someone could get that within a game of playing someone. trust me, I've hit against supposed "high-ranking" high school players with kick-serves. The prediction is almost the entire battle.
All I'm saying is, it's for the pros, not high school. If you can hit it, then good for you. Personally, I don't care for it.

Well I have an improved kick serve ^.^ So I can aim it at three different areas, so pretty much knowing its a kick serve is of no help to them at all.

There's one constant to the kick serve though. It has an opposite spin. Knowing that, guess where it's going to kick? Yeah, the opposite way.
For a righty ---> going to the opponent's left
For a lefty ---> going to the opponent's right
That's all I'd need to know.
-yawn-
I hate tech week...

I slide the ball over the racket differently, and stroke it differently to either have the ball kick nearly parrellel to the ground so that it barely bounces, and another where the ball goes in the normal direction but kicks up still.

I'm to lazy to read the entire conversation but...
W T F are you two argueing about? ((If I had to guess, the spin torque on a soccer ball))
@Other news:
I'm thinking of getting back in, but I feel that I should do this as a new person. Seeing as no one but maybe one or two people would even know me.
So which villages are in desprate need of some new students? And by some I mean one.
